Dave Walsh RRT

Expertise

Registered Respiratory Therapist and Licensed Respiratory Care Practitioner (IL). Thirty-five years in the field of Respiratory Care with the last twenty-five years spent concentrating in the area of sleep disordered breathing. Established the first hospital based compact multiphysiologic recording program for the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). I`ve been fortunate to have the opportunity over the past fifteen years to travel across the country and train fellow heath care practitioners in the scoring and analysis of compact sleep apnea studies.

Experience

I'm proud to have built a comprehensive sleep disorders center in Chicago during the '80s and to then go on and build the first hospital based compact multiphysiologic recording program in the country. I now operate DRW&Associates Inc, providing sleep disorders case management services to the community along with both attended sleep studies in sleep labs along with unattended sleep studies done in the home.
